About us

silla was born out of a passion for beautiful objects: special pieces with aesthetic and historical significance. In 2009, after years of collecting, Andrew Silla and his wife Grace began to work privately with clients from their residence in Southern Maryland. Quickly outgrowing the space, the business was moved from Maryland to Pennsylvania in 2012 and after several warehouse location changes it was firmly settled in the present brick-and-mortar location in downtown Shippensburg.

The 9000 square foot brick-and-mortar gallery is home to a large collection of works of art and estate jewelry. We specialize in sculpture circa 1860 through 1930 with a particular emphasis on the Animaliers and as such the gallery always has a very large collection of exceptional European and American sculpture available on display.

PAIR OF LOUIS XVI STYLE ORMOLU & POLYCHROMED FIVE-LIGHT WALL SCONCES

Circa first half of the 20th century

20 3/8" H x 7" D x 12" W

A good pair of five-light wall sconces in the Louis XVI taste from the first half of the 20th century, each with urn finials hanging drapery over a tapered body with cobalt cold-painted flutes raising five curling acanthus branches that swell into candle wells over finely cast drip wells. The sconces were very carefully drilled for electricity at one point and reconverting them back to electricity would be a simple matter for a light shop.

Condition: Good original condition. Minor rubbing and wear. Originality of the cold-painting is unknown. Drilled for electricity at one point, this since removed. Ready to place.
